The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Prov. 1:7), but often we do not fear the Lord as we ought because we forget how He is revealed in Scripture. We think God is like us, when instead He is utterly holy. In this series, Dr. R.C. Sproul helps us to understand who God really is, showing us the One who is holy. Great for youth.
